dep5 Member Registered: 02/21/03 Posts: 279 Loc: Tipton, Indiana	Was the Olds J-2 option unique to 1957 or was it available '58 also? I understand that individual air cleaners are not original, and the manifolds are common but how hard it is to find the original tri-carb manifold/carb setup with complete linkage with vacuum chamber, brackets, fuel lines and fittings?

Bhigdog Member Registered: 10/23/01 Posts: 1780 Loc: Eastern PA	I sold a J-2 set up last year on EBay. Carbs looked nice but certainly needed rebuild. No air cleaner, no vacuum set up and just partial linkage for $450........Bob _________________________ Bob Beck 39 Chev PU 69 big block Corvette 55 Buick 66C 57 Buick 46C 55 Olds S-88 56 Chrysler St. Regis AACA, BCA, WPC, USHGA
